OK, OK, so picking on the little paper is like shooting fish in a barrel… but surely sometime, somewhere, somehow, they could employ a high-school graduate or even a monkey from the zoo to proof-read these stories before they publish them:
…It lasted another 5km until the alleged driver and her teenage passengers finally abandoned the car when the tyre came completely away from the rim and made a run for it.
Don’t you just hate it when the tyre comes off the rim and makes a run for it?
Or maybe:
A MAN dressed in camouflage used an archery-style bow to fire a steel-tipped hunting arrow…
Wow, amazing, just think he used a bow to fire an arrow! Extra points if you can come up with absolutely anything else that you think the Herald Sun would think you can use to fire an arrow from… perhaps a kazoo, or a mickey-mouse watch.
